Browsing: Semaglutide
Semaglutide is a medication primarily used to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity. It belongs to a class of drugs known as GLP-1 receptor agonists, which mimic the action of the naturally occurring hormone GLP-1 to increase insulin secretion, reduce appetite, and slow down digestion. This helps in better blood sugar control and weight loss. Semaglutide is available in injectable forms and as an oral tablet, and it has been shown in clinical trials to be highly effective in improving glycemic control and aiding significant weight loss, making it a valuable option for managing these conditions.
